1. Introduction to Dried Tonkin Jasmine
Table of Contents
Tonkin Jasmine (Telosma cordata), popularly known as Hoa Thiên Lý, is a prized edible flower in Southeast Asian culture, beloved for its delicate buttery flavor and enchanting nocturnal fragrance. While fresh flowers are highly seasonal, Dried Tonkin Jasmine provides a year-round solution for those seeking its legendary calming and cooling properties.
At Vinahugo, we harvest these flowers in the early morning to capture their maximum aromatic intensity. Using low-temperature heat-pump drying, we preserve the vibrant pale yellow-green color and the sensitive phytochemicals, ensuring the dried flowers retain their medicinal “coolness” and natural sweetness.
